UNC LAW PRO BONO PROGRAM W elcome to the web site for the Pro Bono Program at the University of North Carolina School of Law This program matches law students with practicing attorneys across the state to work on cases that the attorneys have taken for free or reduced rates. Working on Pro Bono projects gives students valuable hands-on experience while helping attorneys to take on cases that they might not otherwise have the resources to do. Most importantly, it provides clients with high-quality, low-cost legal representation. In its first year of operation (1997-98), the Pro Bono Program filled more than 120 placements with attorneys in private practice, non-profits and North Carolina's Legal Services organizations. UNC Law students performed more than 1060 hours of work in these placements. Two received certificates from the School of Law and the North Carolina Bar Association for performing more than 75 hours of pro bono work, and several more are expected to receive certificates this year. The Pro Bono Program operates mainly from August to November and January to April, but provides services on a more limited basis during other times of the year. For more information, we encourage you to explore our website and to

Pro Bono THE CENTER FOR PUBLIC INTEREST LAW Public Interest Career Services Postgraduate Fellowships Summer Programs and Funding ... Pro Bono Forms Columbia's Pro Bono Requirement Columbia is one of only a handful of law schools nationwide that require all students to undertake pro bono work during law school. The "mandatory pro bono program" grew out of a student initiative and continues to be shaped by student interests and needs as well as requests by public interest lawyers and organizations. As a result, many students, including first years, find that the pro bono offerings enrich their law school experience and add relevance to their coursework. Most students perform more than the required 40 hours of service. By 2001, Columbia students had contributed about 100,000 hours of pro bono service since the inception of the requirement in 1993. The Center for Public Interest Law, working with Law School faculty, students, graduates, and public interest lawyers throughout the world, has developed a variety of In-House Projects and Spring Break Caravans and has identified hundreds of other projects that meet the requirement. Students may also design and receive credit for public interest projects that suit their individual interests. Current pro bono projects send students into the city, the rest of the world, and even over the Internet in an effort to make a meaningful contribution for people seeking civil and human rights, environmental justice, and affordable solutions to critical community issues.

Am Law pro bono scores result from weighting and combining two factors: average pro bono hours per lawyer accounts for two-thirds, and the percentage of lawyers with more than 20 hours makes up one-third. Calculations are based on lawyers in U.S. offices only and do not include pro bono work done in non–U.S. offices. Some firms track only some of the pro bono information used in our scoring.

Business and Community Economic Development Pro Bono Many local, community-based organizations have engaged in developing strategies and activities that involve low-income persons in the growth and development of their local community. Examples include a wide-range of initiatives and services to create affordable housing, jobs, child care, small businesses, etc. Many of these community-based organizations need the services of pro bono lawyers for assistance with legal matters pertaining to the business nature of their operations. Newly created organizations need assistance in a variety of areas, such as project assessment and start-up assistance. Established organizations may need assistance in evaluating, negotiating and structuring new projects, handling real estate matters and addressing labor and employment issues. Many lawyers who are accustomed to serving the needs of "corporate" clients have the requisite legal skills and experience that so many community-based and nonprofit organizations desperately need. This includes attorneys who work for corporations and firms. To help these lawyers access the network of community-based and non-profit organizations, many community economic development or business law pro bono programs now exist. These programs act as an intermediary between the private attorneys and the community-based organizations and provide technical and litigation support.

Download this document in PDF format WILLIAM S. RICHARDSON SCHOOL OF LAW LAW STUDENT PUBLIC SERVICE (PRO BONO) PROGRAM probono@hawaii.edu The Law Student Public Service (better known as "Pro Bono") Program serves two main purposes. First, it introduces the concept of pro bono service to law students. Second, the program allows law students to address unmet legal needs in the community. It is hoped that exposure to this aspect of an attorney's responsibility to the community will enrich the legal education of law students at the William S. Richardson School of Law. In order to make the experience both meaningful and useful, the pro bono work is meant to be legal in nature, not clerical or administrative. Additionally, built into the program is a component which encourages the student to discuss and evaluate his or her experience. It is felt that pro bono is a concept worth instilling in law students before they graduate, and it is hoped that law students will gain an understanding and a sensitivity to unmet legal needs and issues. Developing such a commitment during the educational process will benefit not only the law students, but the entire communitythe community that subsidizes every U.H. law student's legal education. The preparation of lawyers who recognize the importance of their public service obligations is an important objective of the William S. Richardson School of Law.

Official Publication of the Minnesota State Bar Association Classifieds Display Ads Back to Contents Business Law Pro Bono: Involving the Other Half of the Profession By James L. Baillie M ost lawyers who provide pro bono services are litigators and they are providing litigation-oriented services. But more than half of all lawyers are not litigators and they participate in pro bono at a much lower level. Involving that other half of the profession in pro bono services is a challenge. But it is a challenge that can be met through pro bono programs that call on their skills. Pro bono programs seeking more volunteers to help with these clients, especially in family law, have noted the resistance of business lawyers, including lawyers on corporate legal staffs. Efforts have been undertaken to recruit, train and retain "non-litigation" lawyers to provide family law and other traditional litigation services. There have been some successes. Some non-litigators have enjoyed expanding their legal skills and helping these clients. Some have become outstanding volunteers. But they are the minority. As early as the 1970s, corporate legal staffs began pro bono programs, often in partnership with local legal aid or pro bono programs. But after initial bursts of enthusiasm, many of these programs have declined.
